Article Abstract

Herein, we report the first mechanochemical strategy for the Ru-catalyzed deoxygenative borylation of free phenols via C-O bond cleavage. This Ru-catalyzed phenolic borylation approach has been successfully extended to the Suzuki-Miyaura-type cross-coupling of phenols with aryl bromides. The protocol accepts a wide scope of phenolic substrates, allowing the synthesis of aryl pinacolboranes and biphenyl structures in excellent yields and serving as a better alternative to classical cross-coupling reactions in the context of pot, atom, and step economy synthesis.

To address the current limitations of DNA-compatible Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions capable of accommodating a broad range of commercially available phenolic building blocks (BBs), an SuFEx-Sonogashira cross-coupling protocol has been developed. This protocol involves the conversion of readily accessible phenolic compounds into the corresponding aryl fluorosulfates within 96-well microplates via a highly efficient liquid-phase SuFEx reaction, followed by Sonogashira cross-coupling with DNA-conjugated terminal alkynes.

Nickel-Catalyzed Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling of Aldehydes and Alkenes toward Skipped Enones.

The direct transformation of C-H bonds into C-C bonds via cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) represents a powerful strategy in synthetic chemistry, enabling streamlined bond construction without the need for prefunctionalized substrates. While traditional CDC approaches rely on polar mechanisms and preactivation of one of the C-H partners, recent advances have introduced radical-based strategies that employ a hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) approach to access carbon-centered radicals from unactivated substrates. Herein, we report a nickel-catalyzed CDC reaction between aldehydes and alkenes for the synthesis of skipped enones, leveraging aryl radicals as intermolecular HAT agents.

Convergent Paired Electrolysis Enables Electrochemical Halogen-Atom Transfer-Mediated Alkyl Radical Cross-Coupling.

The direct cross-coupling of unactivated alkyl halides with aryl or heteroaryl partners remains a fundamental challenge in synthetic chemistry due to their inertness and propensity for side reactions. Herein, we report a transition-metal-free electrochemical halogen-atom transfer strategy that enables efficient alkyl radical cross-coupling via convergent paired electrolysis. In this system, anodically generated α-aminoalkyl radicals mediate the activation of alkyl iodides, while aryl/heteroaryl aldehydes or nitriles undergo cathodic reduction to afford persistent ketyl radical anions or aryl radical anions.

We report the synthesis of three nickel complexes based on Ni(NHC)[P(OR)](Ar)Cl and their application in C()-N cross-coupling reactions. Reactions involving secondary amines proceeded at room temperature, while anilines and primary alkyl amines coupled under mild heating. The reported complexes are air-stable as solids, operate at low catalytic loading, and do not require an exogenous ligand.
